Package: iceweasel Version: 5.0-6 Severity: important Iceweasel regularly hangs while loading pages. Many pages show the symptoms, though never regularly. I haven't determined if some do and some don't. It could also be that some advertisments that are being randomly served influence the issue.
Following symptoms: 1. Complete UI freeze No switching to other tabs, aborting loading of the website, not even redrawing the window. 2. There is always some pending IO The lower-left status popup (where e.g. the URL you're hovering over is displayed) shows the state of the loading operation. While the UI hangs, this is typically in the state "Waiting for www.example.com...". 3. In the output (~/.xsession-errors), I get these four lines: > > ** (firefox-bin:29217): WARNING **: Serious fd usage error 14 > > ** (firefox-bin:29217): WARNING **: Serious fd usage error 10 Yes, two empty ones and two with these warnings! These always (or usually) come in such pairs. I have seen errors 10, 13, 14 (according to errno those are ECHILD, EACCES, EFAULT) there. 4. Neither high CPU (htop) nor IO (iostat) load occurs. 5. After 30s, loading and UI operation resumes, without any faults. The interesting thing here is that these 30s are reproducible, not randomly. I watched the clock after a few such hangs to find that this is systematic indeed. Good luck!
